From 0D to 3D liquid crystal elastomers architectures: Fabrications and applications

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.
This review presents a dimension‐oriented overview of liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs), highlighting their molecular alignment, fabrication strategies, and programmable deformations from 0D particles to 3D architectures. Emphasis is placed on how dimensionality guides design principles, enables diverse actuation modes, and bridges fundamental ...

Ultrahigh Stiffness and Energy Absorption Properties of Isotropic Metallic Closed Cell Microlattices

Small, EarlyView.
True closed cell microlattices without holes are fabricated for the first time using a novel Laser Sheet Fusion additive manufacturing technique. These microlattices exhibited isotropy in stiffness and surprisingly, strength and plasticity as well, despite orientation‐dependent failure mechanisms. Furthermore, material work hardening is shown to be key

Metalinguistic Awareness in the EFL Classroom and Beyond: Exploring the Potential of Translation Tasks

TESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Current trends encouraging a move away from monolingual teaching have sparked a renewed interest in the role of translation in language instruction. Yet, there are few theoretically and empirically grounded proposals regarding specific uses of translation in the language classroom.

AML‐Net: Attention‐based multi‐scale lightweight model for brain tumour segmentation in internet of medical things

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Brain tumour segmentation employing MRI images is important for disease diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment planning. Till now, many encoder‐decoder architectures have been developed for this purpose, with U‐Net being the most extensively utilised. However, these architectures require a lot of parameters to train and have a semantic gap. Some

Can manipulative parasites modify host‐mediated trophic effects? Experimental evidence from Schistocephalus solidus and three‐spined sticklebacks

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Parasites can alter host traits, thereby reshaping host interactions and modifying density‐ and trait‐mediated effects in trophic cascades. But despite increasing research in parasite ecology, the cascading effects of parasitism from individual hosts to population and ...

Allochthonous chemical cues drive predation by a top carnivore

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Identifying the mechanisms by which mobile predators detect and select prey remains a central challenge in sensory biology and functional ecology. This study provides the first direct evidence that chemical cues associated with allochthonous organic matter (e.g.

THE AESTHETICS OF URBAN METABOLISM: Landscape, Design and the Politics of In/Visibility

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In this article, we chart the evolving aesthetic contours of urban metabolism across London, focusing on the River Lea and Thamesmead to the north and south of the River Thames, respectively. We begin in the nineteenth century, when these two sites formed critical nodes within a new sewerage system that relegated the city’s circulatory flows ...

Promoting Methane Reductions Through Behavioural Nudges and Informational Boosts: A Field Choice Experiment in Japanese Rice Farming

Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agricultural methane emissions represent a significant contributor to global climate change, with irrigated rice cultivation being one of the primary sources. Despite the availability of effective mitigation technologies, their adoption often remains limited due to behavioural and institutional constraints.
